An industrial electromagnet can be modeled as an RLcircuit, while it is being energized with a voltage source. If the inductance is 10 H and the wire windings contain of resistance, how long does it take a constant applied voltage to energize the electromagnet to within 90% of its final value (that is, the current equals 90% of its asymptotic value)?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The value or time is 7.68 sec.

Step by step solution

01

Determine the value of I(t)

Here given R=3Ω,L=10H

We have the equation

I(t)=e-RLt(eRLVLdt+K)I(t)=e-310t(e310V10dt+K)I(t)=e-310t(e310V10dt+K)I(t)=e-310t(e310tV3+K)I(t)=V3+Ke-310t

Apply the given condition then we get the value, k=-v3

I(t)=V3+(1-e-310t).

02

Apply the asymptotic value on the equation

limtlt=limtV3+1-e-310t=V3

03

Evaluate the value of time

Since the 90% 0f the asymptotic value of current is 0.9V3.

I(t)=0.9V3I(t)=V3(1-e-310t)=0.9V3(1-e-310t)=0.9

By solving for t = 7.68 sec.

Hence, the value or time is 7.68 sec.

Sailboats A and B each have a mass of 60 kg and cross the starting line at the same time on the first leg of a race. Each has an initial velocity of 2 m/sec. The wind applies a constant force of 650 N to each boat, and the force due to water resistance is proportional to the velocity of the boat. For sailboat A the proportionality constants arebefore planing when the velocity is less than 5 m/sec andwhen the velocity is above 5 m/sec. For sailboat B the proportionality constants arebefore planing when the velocity is less than 6 m/sec andwhen the velocity is above. If the first leg of the race is 500 m long, which sailboat will be leading at the end of the first leg?

It was noon on a cold December day in Tampa: 16°C. Detective Taylor arrived at the crime scene to find the sergeant leaning over the body. The sergeant said there were several suspects. If they knew the exact time of death, then they could narrow the list. Detective Taylor took out a thermometer and measured the temperature of the body: 34.5°C. He then left for lunch. Upon returning at 1:00 p.m., he found the body temperature to be 33.7°C. When did the murder occur? [Hint: Normal body temperature is 37°C.]

An object of mass 60 kg starts from rest at the top of a 45º inclined plane. Assume that the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.05 (see Problem 18). If the force due to air resistance is proportional to the velocity of the object, say, -3, find the equation of motion of the object. How long will it take the object to reach the bottom of the inclined plane if the incline is 10 m long?

Rocket Flight. A model rocket having initial mass mo kg is launched vertically from the ground. The rocket expels gas at a constant rate of a kg/sec and at a constant velocity of b m/sec relative to the rocket. Assume that the magnitude of the gravitational force is proportional to the mass with proportionality constant g. Because the mass is not constant, Newton’s second law leads to the equation (mo - αt) dv/dt - αβ = -g(m0 – αt), where v = dx/dt is the velocity of the rocket, x is its height above the ground, and m0 - αt is the mass of the rocket at t sec after launch. If the initial velocity is zero, solve the above equation to determine the velocity of the rocket and its height above ground for 0≤t<m0/α.

The solution to the initial value problemdydx+yx=x3y2,y(1)=3has a vertical asymptote (“blows up”) at some point in the interval [1,2]By experimenting with the improved Euler’s method subroutine, determine this point to two decimal places.
